Dear GrandOldTeam members
The infamous Keith_Shabs here. Just wanted to say something. I realise im not exactly thought of fondly around here, but hear me out.
Ive been looking round the forum today and finally realised what happened on TW, and how that poor forum crumbled, (which i wholeheartedly apologise for, my intention was certainly not to destroy it, quite the opposite, and i apologise for dragging that up once more as its probably died a death the amount its been spoke about) and its nice to see that some of you, whilst attributing some of the blame to my arrival, you have placed most of the blame mainly at the feet of Garry for his unquivering defence of me. However i feel i must accept some part of the blame for the whole sad affair so for that, im sorry.
Ive seen all the things written about me. It doesn't really bother me, what i want to know is, am i just going to get banned here too ?, the reason i say this is Danny contemplated whether to find my I.P and ban me before i had even found my way on here. Im not after causing trouble, and never have been, despite what you may think.
Its entirely down to you what happens really, i appreciate you all have the power to ban me indefinately (whether that power be indirectly, as influential members of this site or directly as the admins and mods that pioneered this forum) and that would essentially be the end of the matter.
I would just like the chance to stay on and speak my mind. I mean i knew Garry was an idiot in the end and most people share that view, but he did say he would stake his car on me being a blue, surely that says something, call it blind faith, whatever. Think about it, if i really was a red i must be some sad f****r to go to this length to get a laugh out of it.
At the end of the day i am a blue, always have been always will be, regardless of whether i stay on here or not. And my job is not to convince you of that, i just want somewhere to air my views, controversial they may be sometimes.
I may not share the same opinions as alot of the lads on here but at least i put my point across in a non-insulting or derogatory way, and thats what forums are about, expressing different opinions. I just want somewhere to do that.
I can take the sly digs, the Shabba from Chico et al, i can take the total shunning from Monty and Suits. Those who found my posts less desirable on TW just ignored it, or sensibly argued their point against it, which i thought was great as it meant i got to discuss the issue at hand in a sensible way, i didnt intend for the discussion to deteriorate into swearing and arguing.
The way the issue of "Shabs" is banded about on here, its as if EVERYONE "knew" i was a red from day one and despised me. Not true, quite a few people on there thought my posts were well thought out and reasonable on the whole. Of course there was a few of my posts that sparked outrage. At the time, i realised some of these posts were going to be ill-received, yet i proceeded, not to get a rise out of anyone, just to stimulate a discussion of some sort.
I mean even Chico, whos adulation of me knows no bounds, said he missed the fact that i did stimulate discussions, maybe in not so many words or as eloquently, but thats what you said right ?.
Right, im just trying to do the respectful thing here, i know that some of you don't want me here, some of you lament my presence was ever even felt at all, and i dont want to step on any toes and spark "TW pt II : Shabs strikes back ". I thought it would be appropriate to put it all in one topic and have the matter done with once and for all, rather than me just stay here, showing complete disregard as to other members thoughts about me and have the whole wicked whispers thing going on.
And this can be solved by a simple democratic vote. You don't have to want me here, you don't even have to like me if you dont want to, which is a shame as im a pretty likeable bloke when you get to know me. However, that said, an overwhelming number of "[Poor language removed] off Keiths* and i'm sadly on the next plane to wherever will take me.
Ive clocked up around 20 posts on here already, and i haven't upset anyone so far and we've talked about quite a few topics. I give you my word there will be no more bickering concerning me if im allowed to stay, i won't allow it to happen as i will remove myself from the situation. The most will be harmless banter such as "Hows Liverpool getting on Keith? ".
Bit of feedback would be nice even if its just to say "sorry but sayonara".
Sincerely
Keith
